In his first picture book, for readers up to 8, illustrator Kevin Waldron reveals his obvious love for drawing animals with the charismatic denizens of Mr. Peek's zoo. But this particular day, something is not right. Mr. Peek's jacket is not fitting well at all, and as he makes his rounds, muttering to himself about being overweight and getting old and wrinkly, the hippo and the penguins and the elephant and all the other animals think he must be talking to them, and they all become quite downhearted. Only after Mr. Peek realizes that he is wearing his son's jacket instead of his own, do things begin to seem all right again. Waldron's painted cartoons are full of personality.
